P A T I E N C E - Snyder needs to just 'butt out' and give Scot time to figure out who he needs in the FO, who he needs as the HC and what players fit what he thinks is a good system for this franchise - it's a mess & it will take time

I'm expecting to see Robert Griffin clearly demonstrate that he's the best option to be the starter at QB

(Split into its own thread. Actual news stories shouldn't get buried.)

"I’m never under the assumption that you draft for need. You draft the best available football player on the board. ... Because, in the long run, they are the ones who will help you win the most games." - Scot McCloughan

I think there may be some that would like
RG3 be given some time to get completely 'healed'

and

we do not need to risk anything happening to RG3

RG3 will be starting because he's ready to play

I am excited to see a faster and better RG3 than we saw in 2012

I got the point of your Tavaris Jackson question... the problem is, NO ONE takes him as a serious passing threat, which you MUST have in order to approach the threat that is RG3... If they don't take the pass seriously, it really limits your options.

I love your modesty lol but it doesn't limit your options, it destroys the offense. The read-option like all offenses requires a real quarterback. Not a figure head. Not someone who is there by title. It requires someone who can make the reads in a timely manner, make decisions in a timely manner, protect the football and be productive within seconds of receiving the snap. Tavaris Jackson would be like having Clinton Portis at QB.

I'd love to hear the corresponding Rex analogy.

Just for kix:

Rex - 55%, 56 TD, 60 INT

Jackson - 59.4%, 38 TD, 35 INT= better arm, just as accurate, not any worse with decisions, finds open LBs almost as well, way better runner.

sounds great ..... but i hope he isnt rushing things along just to prove a point.now having said that if he is 110% for opening day by all means he should start,but if he not 100% then cousins needs to play.
